I hope you can find an answer, Mark.

From your other thread:

Feeling on fire... sounds like a pain syndrome. IT sounds awful.

Whatever it is seems to be related to what your brain does when you sleep. The stroke may have changed how your brain sleeps. Many meds "interfere with sleep architecture" ..... if a med could interfere in just the right way, perhaps it could help. Perhaps a diligent neuro can figure it out... let's hope.

Ever been to a sleep specialist? They are neuros that specialize in sleep disorders... the first thing they do is have you do a sleep study, while wired so they can study your brainwaves and other stuff.

What do you do to get by? Are you using pain meds for that? Do any work?
